HEALTH SCIENCES AND DISEASES(2021)
Abstract
ABSTRACT Objective. In December 2019, a new coronavirus was identified in Wuhan, Some scientific articles (Chinese), suggested that diabetes was one of the most common comorbidities in affected patients. COVID-19 can affect both types of diabetes (1 and 2) without a difference in risk. In Mali, the lack of a study on this subject encourageddd us to carry out this study. Population and methods. We conducted a descriptive study, with prospective data collection. Results. Among 512 patients infected with covid 19 collected, 56 were diabetic (11%). The sex ratio was 1.24. The average age was 59.02 years old. High blood pressure and overweight were associated comorbidities, respectively, 43% and 27% of patients. Clinical signs were cough (44.7%), fever (17.9%), headache (10.6%), digestive disturbances (5.4%), general fatigue (7.1%), and rhinorrhea (3.6%), however, 19.6% of patients had no symptoms. The COVID management protocol was that of the Mali national program, all patients benefited from it. All the patients were on anti-diabetic treatment, 48.2% of them were on insulin. The outcome was favorable with 94.6% of the patients cured. The death rate was 5.4%. Conclusion. At the date of study, there was no data confirming an increased risk of contracting COVID-19 in patients with diabetes. This requires special attention, however, as diabetes can be associated with severe, critical and fatal forms of COVID RESUME Objectif.
